Skoggiel, I like the way the depth of field blurs the wings, giving them a feeling of being imaginary. I also like the way the lighting emphasizes the facial features and makes the figurine come to life. Stunning!

I am so new to photography that I still feel like I have no clue about Fstops and all that but I'm learning, thanks to this site! I am also learning to have patience.... these have been harder than I anticipated but well worth it!





For this shot, I had the jewelry set up on the mirror, there was minimal daylight coming from the rt and overhead fixture. The main lighting was the two flashlights show in the set up picture. The large flashlight was aimed into the center of the jewelry, the small LED light was cast to the left of the pieces. The light refracted off the mirror, casting a shadow onto the white poster board which was in turn captured in the mirror reflection giving the floating feel to this piece. This was challenging but FUN!!!

Just used the Kitchen light with the glass around it reflecting. The funny part is that he is not a smoker, just borrowed it from a friend for the shot.

I agree what a fab idea never would have guessed that was what you had done

Used my desk lamp reflected on a white card. Were trying not to shine the light too directly on the cristal to reduce the highlights being blown out too much.
